ASPARAGUS 
Asparagus is one of the earliest of 
spring vegetables. Ready for the table 
when we are just planting most vege- 
tables, and weeks before the earliest 
green peas are ready. And a bed once 
started will last for years. It should 
have a place in every garden. 
CONOVER'S COLOSSAL. The 
standard variety. More used than any 
other. Large green shoots of fine 
quality. Best kind for family use. 
Pkg., 5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 20c; lib., 60c. 
PALMETTO. This is one of the old 
standard varieties and Is a great 
favorite with many gardeners. It is 
mammoth in size and of a light green 
color. The shoots are very uniform in 
size and almost entirely free from 
rust. Pkg., 5c; oz., 10c; Vt lb., 20c; 
lb., 60c. 
To make a good asparagus bed, the 
ground should be trenched two feet 
deep and highly manured. Set plants 
in rows three feet apart and one foot 
apart in the row. Once planted it will 
last a lifetime.
